I had a truly vile evening which was composed of a hellishly difficult test in school, getting stuck in a sprinkler system on the school grounds that I couldn’t see because it was so dark which left me soaked like a wet rat in the cold night, and my wriggling and jumping must have made my (beloved, beautiful, worn every day for over a decade) watch come loose, and I lost it somewhere either at school, on the train, or in my walk home through my town. Sigh, sigh, sigh. Boy oh boy is it a Queen Catherine day.
Slightly smoky, a little complicated, alotta delicious. My shoulders have straightened, and my chin is up. I think I’ll have another cup!

Catherine can do that for you! It is her specialty. And I hope upon hope that your watch is somehow found and returned to you. To lose a well-traveled hat AND a beloved watch in one week is TOO MUCH! The girls closed the door to the living room this morning in disgust because I was murmuring sloppy, passionate endearments to my first morning cup. Oh! I have to remember that! A great way to get some alone time….
I know! I said to my husband “If things come in 3s, what am I going to lose next!!?!?” and then I thought to myself “Sheesh – after that test perhaps I’ll be losing my 4.0 average at school!!!” I will happily lose my errr…lunch carrier bag…instead?!?!
He hee – yes – good way to get some alone time :)
Here’s hoping today is far less stressful! And for the record – I have found that speaking to inanimate objects is nearly always an efficient way to clear the room.
Hello takgoti! I was scratching my head wondering what inanimate objects JacquelineM had mentioned speaking to when I realized I WAS THE ONE who spoke to an inanimate object! Thing is, I do it a lot. I get very personal with my tea in the mornings. I once apologized quite eloquently – it was very moving – to a cup of English Breakfast for not drinking it in a long time. They closed the door that day, too.

Oh! I lost my sunglasses a little while ago – maybe that can be 3 :)
Yes! So it is over now…
